Cross Out Sounds that Don’t Match This was in the PDF but not sure if it is part of lesson plan. I just threw it here. Vowel Sound Matching Game Have students break up into pairs or small groups and play the “Kamatz/Patach/Holom Memory Matching Game.”   Have students play according to the memory game rules (for more information, see here: https://www.eduplace.com/ss/act/rules.html) to review and practice the vowel sounds of Kamatz, Patach and Holom with the letters learned so far. Note: Make sure to print both pages of the “Kamatz Patach Holom Matching Game” and print on cardstock. Cut into game cards ahead of time. For younger students: Only print page 1 of the matching game, for a simpler and quicker game. אבּבגדהוזחטיכּכךלמםנןסעפּפףצץקרשׁשׂתּת

The Four Quarters of the Old City   Have students take turns reading about the four quarters of the Old City of Jerusalem. Teach students to say “ani rotzeh/rotzah” רוצה אני (m/f) for “I want…” and “l’rot” לראות - “to see”. Write these phrases on the blackboard for students to see and practice. Remind students what we have studied about Jerusalem in the past few lessons as well. Then, have the students go around and share what they would want to see and explore in the Old City, starting with “Ani rotzeh/rotzah l’rot……” לראות רוצה אני אבּבגדהוזחטיכּכךלמםנןסעפּפףצץקרשׁשׂתּת

אבּבגדהוזחטיכּכךלמםנןסעפּפףצץקרשׁשׂתּת TPR Walk/Stop Game לִרְקוֹד TPR Walk/Stop Game   Add in new words “lirkod” לרקוד (to dance) and “l’kfotz” לקפוץ (to jump) Write the new words on the blackboard and explain their meanings. Then, have students play “walk and stop” using these new words, as well as the previous TPR words. First watch this explanatory video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a72goyDtjeI&feature=youtu.be then play a modified version of this game, in which Hebrew command words are used instead (remove the name/clap component). The goal of the game is to get students to pay attention, so that even when the words have an opposite meaning, they will still follow the rules לִקְפּוֹץ אבּבגדהוזחטיכּכךלמםנןסעפּפףצץקרשׁשׂתּת
